At the Bargello William Kentridge and his Paper Music

Inaugurates the seventh edition of the Florentine festival of contemporary music and visual arts the South African artist William Kentridge with his show, in the courtyard of the Bargello, on 11 September at 21.

Paper Music presents a cine-concert with an installation and ten short films, where di 4 unpublished, the result of a decade of research of William Kentridge, con Philip Miller, South African composer host of the Art Biennale 2013 and longtime collaborator of Kentridge, joining together music, teatro, dance, sculpture and drawing and investigates the relationships between the various artistic disciplines.

The autore, to the tune of Miller, will perform in a performance, in the courtyard of the Bargello Museum with a surprising scenography created for the occasion where there are picture and sound, as explained by the same Kentridge: "As a particular sound or music can make you see something in a different way and as a movie or an image or a frame from a film makes you feel the music in a different way".

The event is part of a rich program of Florence Contemporary Sounds that since September 11 continues until the day 21 with well-known names in the music, as well as classics of the twentieth century, four world premieres and first three national.

In addition to, in the exclusive London Sinfonietta, MDI Ensemble, Quartet Prometheus, all FLAME, Edison Studio, Microensemble and Real Time.

The title of this seventh edition is inspired by an essay by Andrei Tarkovsky's "Sculpting in Time", reflections on time and the perception of reality, that are offered to the public through a programming pleasant despite the character of experimentation.
